A big thank you to students, staff, parents, family members, and the community for making the La Farge Schools Wild West Book Fair a huge success! With the help of some generous community support, we were able to make sure that all students were able to purchase one or more books. Profits will buy even more books for the library, but even more important, the fair was a means of getting students to get excited about books and reading. Thanks again for your support.
Recently, the 4th graders have been working on their reading skills by practicing with different classes. Each week they read with 7th graders, 1st graders, and kindergarteners. These reading sessions allow for the students to make connections with other grades while also learning how to be good role models. While the focus has been on reading; occasionally a fun activity is tied in. For instance, students were able to make slime with the 1st graders while reading the book Lets Make Slime.
